Body mint

Comments

 
Picture
chlorophyll supplement claimed to be an "internal deodorant", developed and specialized to target multiple body odors, including underarm, foot and bad breath. Body Mint Lady is formulated for feminine odor. Body mint Sports target athletes.
Each tablet contains 100 mg of chlorophyllin and concentrated greens, 6 mg Sodium and 4 mg Copper. Body mint Sports is 110% more concentrated. Body mint lady also contains 125 mg Calcium and 200 IU Vitamin D.


Observations in the 1940s and 1950s that topical chlorophyllin had deodorizing effects on foul-smelling wounds led clinicians to believe in its odor-reducing properties. Some case reports indicated that chlorophyllin doses of 100-200 mg/day were effective in reducing fecal odor in ostomy patients, 100-300 mg/day decreased subjective assessments of urinary and fecal odor in incontinent patients, but at least one placebo-controlled trial found that the effect of 75 mg of oral chlorophyllin three times daily did not differ from that of a placebo in the patients' subjective assessment of the unpleasant odor. A small study found that oral chlorophyllin taken at 60 mg three times daily for three weeks significantly decreased urinary trimethylamine concentrations in Japanese TMAU patients.

The deodorizing effects chlorophyllin might be largely due to chlorophyllin's effect on bacterial metabolism, as it interferes with oxidation-reduction mechanisms of anaerobic organisms.

Sweetish odor

Comments

 
Picture
​Somewhat sweet, fruity or nail polish=like odors in breath and sweat could be because of ketones, ethers, ketosis, ketoacidosis, diabetes. The intensity of odors may increase in hot weather. Sometimes pregnant women observe sweet-smell from their vagina and this does not seem to be caused by infection, at least not dangerous or easily detectable. A rare genetic disease maple syrup urine disease, also known as branched chain ketoaciduria causes maple-like smell in urine. This is because of improper metabolism of Isoleucine, Leucine and Valine, as the responsible enzyme - branched-chain ketoacid dehydrogenase, involved in the catabolism of branched chain amino acids, is not fully functional. Sweet smelling stool could indicate malabsorption and can be observed with low carb dieting, alcohol and other dietary modifications, also after colostomy and cleansing.  
Musky odor is sometimes identified as pungent sweet, camphoraceous and even bitter. it could be caused by glandular substances or synthetic musks with a wide variety of chemical structures. Certain types of musky smell might be early indicators of Parkinson's disease.

Shower

Comments

Washing oneself by standing upright under water sprayed from a nozzle. Although it is important to shower regularly to maintain good personal hygiene, showering too much can negatively affect skin’s health. It is recommended to shower more often if you use public places filled with microbes (like the subway or buses), have a job that is physically demanding or exercise regularly.
Hot shower can help to kick colds, soothe pain, and moisturize skin.
Cold showers increase alertness, make hair appear shinier and stronger, improve immunity and circulation, relieve depression and ease stress.
As showering includes raising the arms above the head, this puts an extra workload on the heart known as the pressor response (increase in blood pressure) and may be exhausting for heart patients. Heart attack survivors are permitted to take unsupervised showers (with warm not hot water) in later stages of rehabilitation (level 7, when permitted to walk up one flight of stairs under supervision).
Taking a shower burns 3.5 METs/hr equivalent to moderate intensity activities like mopping floors or bowling.
